It's authentic and is a Chiara bag. I believe those bags came out in 2009 but I don't know how long after that they continued to make it nor whether Dooney resurrected the style more recently.

I wonder if the end of the zipper is supposed to be tucked into the bag rather than sticking out. Also, the stitching on the front patch looks sloppy though I've seen it on occasion where the workmanship is shoddy.

Please post a picture of the back of the red, white and blue tag.

Is (or was) this bag listed somewhere?

I’ve posted the link it’s from poshmark
that is not a dooney zipper pull. The key leash hardware. The tassels. The opening of the bag.
for the amount of money the seller wants, GTFOH

Could someone please authenticate this Florentine Satchel in Natural? I bought it on poshmark (bad, I know) to replace my satchel that I spilled hand sanitizer on. The lighter logo, without the dark behind the duck, seems off to me. Thank you so much!

Hello Authenticators,
Can someone please take a look at this bucket bag, I am interested in on eBay?
Thank you

Item: Bucket bag pale blue
Number: 374683541557
Seller: got2havethis
eBay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/3746835415...YbsNJ9CQPW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
It's fine.
I'm no expert... but looked at the listing out of curiosity...
the measurements don't make sense to me.
I can't comment on anything else.

I think the depth is a typo and SHB 7.5"
 
Hi everyone! I'm new to TPF. Could someone authenticate this purse for me? I have my suspicions it's not a real D&B: the bright yellow thread, the brass looks to be flaking, the strap is white, no duck fob, and the inner lining. I've done some reverse image searches on it, and nothing has come up. Thanks for any and all help.

Sorry but the bag isn't authentic.

It's trying to be some type of Essex bag but not doing it correctly.

I'm not too optimistic about Goodwill ending the listing if notified that it's fake. Even for bags they sell with COAs, many of those bags are fake, the companies doing the authentications are wrong and Goodwill is in denial.
